Description
The goal of EFNEP is to improve knowledge and behavior in four priority areas of eligible adults and youth after program participation. The four priority areas are: 1) diet quality and physical activity, 2) food safety, 3) food resource management (FRM), and 4) food security. Federal funds distributed to 1862 and 1890 land grant institutions are used to deliver evidence based, interactive educational programs that are taught using paraprofessionals. The audience eligible to participate in EFNEP are low income adults with children in the household, low-income young adults, and low-income youth aged 5 to 18 years. After participating in EFNEP, adult and youth participant self-reported behavior changes are assessed and reported to local, state, and federal partners.
